Our most complete ski and snowboarding programme. Full progression from first steps to confident intermediate skiing, avalanche awareness training and Gondola Phase 1.
The Ski and Snowboarding Launchpad 7-Days is the most comprehensive programme Adventure Packers offers at Silver level. Seven days gives you enough time to genuinely master beginner and intermediate technique, reach Gondola Phase 1, and complete a full avalanche awareness and mountain safety session on Day 6 -- training that is not included in most ski schools in India.
By the final day most students are skiing parallel turns confidently on intermediate slopes and have the mountain knowledge to ski safely without constant supervision. The Course Completion Certificate from Day 6 reflects a real assessment of that ability.
Guests wishing to extend their stay in Gulmarg or explore other destinations in Kashmir can request customised arrangements through our team.
Sheikh Bilal holds 20 National and State Gold Medals and is a former Captain of the J&K State Ski Team. Faizan Lone has 10 National Gold Medals and has represented India globally as a FIS Athlete. You are not learning from a local guide — you are learning from champions.
Most ski schools in Gulmarg put you in a group and charge extra for private tuition. At Adventure Packers, every Silver, Gold and Platinum package includes a dedicated one-on-one instructor for every session. Your pace. Your feedback. Your progress.
Our structured, skill-driven sessions are designed to accelerate your learning. Students consistently reach levels in 5 days that would normally take two to three weeks at a typical ski school. The day-by-day programme below is not a rough guide — it is what our students actually achieve.
Sheikh Aabid is CSIA (Canadian Ski Instructors Alliance) certified. Every multi-day course includes avalanche awareness and mountain safety training on Day 6 -- knowledge that most ski schools in India do not teach at all.
Every instructor at Adventure Packers is from Gulmarg. They know every slope, every snow condition across the season, every safe line and every shortcut. That local knowledge makes your training faster and your experience on the mountain safer.
Skis or snowboard, boots, poles, ski wear, gloves, goggles and safety gear are all included in the Silver package price. You arrive, we fit you out on Day 1. No separate rental shop, no additional fees, no surprises.
